Add in the marinated chicken and mushrooms.*Pro Tip: To avoid the burn error, try to fill the whole bottom of Instant Pot with a single layer of chicken pieces and mushrooms to avoid the rice from touching the bottom of the pot.Add in the rice and make sure all the rice are submerged in the water. Do not mix.Close the lid. Pressure Cook at High Pressure for 9 minutes + Natural Release for 15 minutes.
